Standardized, best-practices-based facilities

Each IBM Cloud data center features one or more pods, supporting up to 5,000 servers. Space, power, network, personnel and internal infrastructure are optimized across all locations.

Redundant, best-in-class infrastructure

Built with industry-leading hardware and equipment, and outfitted with multiple power feeds, fiber links, dedicated generators and battery backup. Redundant n+1 power and cooling resources are regularly inspected to guarantee stability.

Better power, bandwidth, and server support

IBM Cloud servers feature high-bandwidth racks with ample power, simplified system deployment and faster issue resolution. Each rack has 40 Gbps of connectivity — 20 Gbps to the private network, 20 Gbps to the public network.

24/7 on-site security, rigorous controls

All locations are secured, with server-room access limited to certified employees. Controls are vetted by third-party auditors and detailed reports are provided for your own security.
